Jimbo662 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Can anyone confirm whether this is a brittle star? I took several pics and this is the best I could get. I think it's stuck in a crevasse in the rock on top and can only get it's arms out. Wanted to confirm before I attempt to free it. From what I can tell they're ok for a reef tank.

+KimP Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 It looks like a mini brittle star to me. That's what they do, live in the rock and stick their arms out to catch food. They're hard to catch and are really good little hitchhikers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woods Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Definitely a mini brittle star. I have them in my tank and the little arms all come out when I feed the tank. They are completely reef safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
